i shot this in the parking garage underneath the zkm, center for art and media, in karlsruhe, germany.

main techniques i used here are:
- contrast adjusting the raw-file, saved a darker and a brighter copy as jpg
- layering the two files
- unsharp mask the upper layer
- added a layer mask to simulate a graduated neutral density filter to darken the lights
- merded down
- cropping and desaturating
- adding a vignette
- save and post
